Le Feu Eye turns a living fire into a piece of furniture. A perfect black circle stands on three slim legs, and a real bioethanol flame dances behind the glass, so the fireplace reads as sculpture when it is unlit and as the heart of the room when it is burning.
It needs no chimney, no flue and no electricity. You choose the top glass, the front glass and the legs, so the black Eye can lean graphic and monochrome, soft with oak, or warm with rose gold.
The Design Story
Le Feu began with a family trade. For generations the Lauritsen family in Denmark worked with fireplaces and wood stoves, and Søren Lauritsen learned the craft as a boy in his grandfather’s fireplace shop. In 2017 he set out to change how people think about a fireplace: something beautiful, eco-friendly and easy to place at the center of any home. The first drawings were finished the same evening, and the idea was refined with engineers and specialists into the Le Feu range.
The Eye is the brand’s round, freestanding answer to that idea. Where the Dome series hangs or perches, the Eye simply stands, and its circular frame is meant to be enjoyed from every angle. Le Feu describes it plainly: just as a piece of furniture, the Eye draws attention from everyone who enters the room.
Every home deserves a warm heart.
The Maker
Le Feu was founded in Denmark in 2017 by Søren Lauritsen, a third-generation fireplace specialist. The company designs bioethanol fireplaces, gas fireplaces and outdoor pizza ovens, and works with a simple belief that a fireplace should be the natural gathering point of a home.
Why You'll Love It
The circle is the whole design. There is no visible hardware and no chimney breast, so the flame becomes the focal point the way a lamp or a sculpture would.
It gives off real heat. Le Feu rates the Eye at 2.8 kW, and one fill of the 54 fl oz burner gives up to four and a half hours of flame.
You can move it. With no flue to connect and no cord to plug in, the Eye can stand between a sitting area and a dining table this winter and somewhere new next year.
It is yours to compose. Two top glasses, three front glasses and five leg finishes make the black Eye alone thirty different fireplaces.
Where It's Best Placed
The Eye is at its best where it can be seen from more than one side: beside a sofa, in an open-plan room between living and dining, or in a bedroom corner where a TV would usually go. Keep at least 15 cm (6 in) of open space from curtains, shelving and other flammable materials, and set it on a level floor.
The Finishes
Top Glass
The crescent of glass that crowns the flame.
Front Glass
The lower half-moon that frames the fire: matte black, soft white or reflective mirror.
Legs
Three slender legs in two oaks or three colors.

Living With It
Fill the burner with liquid bioethanol only when it is cold, and let the fireplace cool before you move it. Wipe the frame and glass with a soft, dry cloth; glass cleaner on a cloth works for fingerprints. These are our own care tips: follow the Le Feu Eye manual that comes with the fireplace for fuelling and lighting.
Who It's Not For
- Anyone who needs a heat source for a whole house: it warms a room, it does not replace heating.
- Rooms where it cannot have at least 15 cm (6 in) of clearance from flammable materials.
- Homes with very young children or pets who will be left alone near an open flame.
- A permanent outdoor install: Le Feu’s outdoor guidance is written for its Dome models.
About Le Feu
Le Feu is a Danish design brand making bioethanol fireplaces with clean combustion.

According to Le Feu, it is the best-selling bioethanol fireplace in Scandinavia.
Questions We Hear Most
Why is the Le Feu Eye round?
The circle lets you enjoy the fireplace from every angle. Le Feu designed the Eye as a freestanding piece of furniture, so the frame looks finished from the front, the side and the back.
What can I customize on the black Eye?
The frame stays black. You choose a black or white top glass, a black, white or mirror front glass, and one of five leg finishes: black, white, smoked oak, soap-treated oak or rose gold.
Does the Le Feu Eye give off real heat?
Yes. It burns real bioethanol and Le Feu rates the heat output at 2.8 kW. It is designed to bring warmth and atmosphere to the room it stands in.
How long does one fill last?
The burner holds about 54 fl oz (1.6 L) of bioethanol, which Le Feu says gives up to 4.5 hours of flame.
Can I take the Eye from room to room?
Yes. It needs no chimney, flue, fresh-air intake or electricity, so you can move it once it has cooled down. It weighs about 53 lb, so plan on two hands.
Is it a good gift for someone who loves Danish design?
It is a lasting one. The Eye comes from a Danish family of fireplace makers, and its sculptural form suits homes that collect Scandinavian design. For a gift, confirm the room and clearance first.
Why We Love It
We look for objects that change a room the moment they arrive. The Eye does it twice: once as a black, perfectly round sculpture, and again every evening when the flame is lit.
